What you should know
Standing on the wrong side in a one-sided rivalry with the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs, the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers are hoping to record their first win since Jan. 8, 2021. WKU and Louisiana Tech will face off in a Conference USA bout at 9 pm ET on Thursday at the EA Diddle Arena. Given that both teams suffered defeat in their last game, both go into this competition with a little extra motivation.
The Hilltoppers were within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap last Saturday after losing 83-77 to the Rice Owls.

Meanwhile, Louisiana Tech came up short against the Charlotte 49ers last Saturday, losing 74-67.
At the teams’ previous meeting in January, WKU lost away to Louisiana Tech by a crucial 85-74 margin. Maybe the WKU has better luck at home than on the road? Watch the game and visit CBS Sports for all the details.
